If you have changed the metadata of a book in Calibre then resending the book to your reader should update the metadata on the reader.

There is an even easier way. If you have Calibre's Preferences - Sending books to device - Metadata management set to 'Automatic management' then the metadata for all books on your reader is synced with Calibre's metadata every time you connect. No resending required at all.

Big Caveat: if you have set up all your Sony Collections in any way other than by using Calibre - don't set to 'Automatic management' as calibre will overwrite them every time you connect.

FYI - A Sony reader keeps all book metadata in its own database (cache.xml), so editing the book whilst on the reader wouldn't really be helpful.
